IT'S SNOWING! IT'S SNOWING!

IT'S SNOWING! IT'S SNOWING! IT'S SNOWING!!!!!!!!

I just woke up and opened my curtains and... EVERYTHING was WHITE!!!! It's ammmmmaaaaaazing!!!! WOW! Sooo beautiful!

I've the worst cold/flu ever and woke up snuffling away, but forgot all about it I was so mesmerized by watching these huge FAT, fluffy snowflakes falling. They are seriously plump! WOW it's just soooo amazing!

I mean of course I've seen snow before. Even been snowed in by a blizzard at Ruapehu, but today is different....I've never had it where I actually LIVE!

Wow it's just SO pretty! :)

No wonder my flatmate from Canada was swearing this morning .....we have to walk to work in it you see.

Hmmm, that might be a bit of a problem.....? Oh well I guess I'll just take an umbrella or something....only one way to find out!

I'll try and take some pictures for you on my way, but it might be like that John Meyer song says..."I wish I could describe that sunrise, you should've seen it with your own eyes."

Yeah, it's like that sometimes in life hey, the really beautiful moments are ones you really have to be there to feel the true experience.

Kim, my Canadian flatmate, is disgusted with my delight at snow, where she's from they get it as high as their front door (eek!), but for me it's still a novelty and that's great - I feel like a little kid :)

Case in point, I'm grinning away coz i've just realised my socks I hung out to dry the other day now have snowflakes all over them....and I can't stop smiling I think it's so cool!

It's just so cool to finally have snow! For weeks now I've felt ripped off while the rest of Japan enjoyed a white christmas (a new experience for me!) and now we finally have some of our own snow in Tokyo!

I could sit and watch the snowflakes fall all day - but I have to go to work. Wish me luck!
